Getting Back to You — Anna Gibbs

Anna Gibbs · Executive Leadership Coach · Author

Have you ever looked around at everything you've accomplished...
...and quietly wondered why it doesn't feel the way you thought it would?

Getting Back to You — book cover

You can build a successful career, lead others well, achieve your goals — and still find yourself wondering why something no longer feels the same. Not because you've failed. Not because you've lost your ambition. But because somewhere along the way, the demands of leadership and success may have pulled your attention so far outward that you stopped listening to what was happening within.

Getting Back to You is an invitation to pause, reflect, and reconnect with yourself — while honoring everything you've built.

This Feels Familiar

  • You've accomplished more than you imagined, yet something feels different — quieter, less certain than you expected it to.
  • You continue showing up — leading, supporting, giving to others — and rarely pause to ask what you actually need.
  • You are still capable, committed, and ambitious. But the way you've always done things no longer feels sustainable, or fully true to who you are.
  • You don't want to walk away from the life you've built. You want to feel more present within it.

A Conversation Many Accomplished Women Are Ready to Have

Getting Back to You

Getting Back to You is for the woman who has built the career, led the team, carried the responsibility, and become known as the person others can depend on.

From the outside, her life may look successful. Yet privately, she may sense a growing distance between the life she is living and what feels true to her now.

That gradual drift is what I describe in the book as misalignment. It rarely happens all at once. It happens quietly, as responsibility, expectations, and the habit of being the capable one begin to shape your choices more than your own values, boundaries, and inner knowing.

Through personal stories, thoughtful reflection, and practical guidance, Getting Back to You will help you recognize what has changed, reconnect with what matters most, and move forward with greater clarity, alignment, and self-trust.

Inside Getting Back to You, You Will Learn How To:

  • 01

    Recognize the subtle ways you may have become disconnected from yourself — even while continuing to succeed.

  • 02

    Understand how responsibility, achievement, and the expectations of others can gradually influence your identity and decisions.

  • 03

    Reconnect with your values, beliefs, boundaries, and inner knowing.

  • 04

    Rebuild trust in your own voice and make decisions with greater confidence and clarity.

  • 05

    Create a more aligned way of living and leading — without dismissing everything you've worked so hard to build.

  • 06

    Use the R.E.T.U.R.N.™ Method whenever life begins pulling you away from yourself again.

Why I Wrote This Book

This book was written from my own lived experience — during a time in my life that called me to pause, look inward, and realign with who I truly was becoming.

I am a business leader, coach, consultant, and someone others turn to for clarity and direction. I've spent my career helping people navigate growth, change, and expansion.

And still, like so many women who lead, I found myself operating from old patterns that I didn't stop to question. I was doing what I had always done, yet nothing felt the same. I ignored the signs and just pushed through — telling myself it was nothing. Leadership was full of challenges, and holding it together was expected. Regardless of what I was feeling, I believed that needing support would somehow mean losing credibility.

I carried all that responsibility with pride for so long, until one day it felt different. And I realized that what I was carrying was quietly costing me more than I was willing to admit.

I didn't write this book because I have all the answers. I wrote it because I finally slowed down long enough to ask better questions.

Getting Back to You is not about reinventing yourself or walking away from the life you've built. It's about remembering who you are beneath the expectations, the roles, and the pressure to be everything for everyone else.

The R.E.T.U.R.N.™ Method

A Framework You Can Return to Again and Again

Inside the book you'll discover the R.E.T.U.R.N.™ Method — a practical framework created from Anna's own journey and refined through years of leadership and coaching experience.

It isn't about becoming someone new. It's about learning how to recognize when you've drifted from yourself — and knowing how to find your way back.

The R.E.T.U.R.N.™ Method isn't a one-time solution. It's a practice you can return to throughout your life — whenever your values, priorities, leadership, relationships, or identity begin to evolve. Because growth isn't linear. The ability to return to yourself is a practice you can carry with you for the rest of your life.

If you've been carrying more than anyone realizes...

  • If you've been questioning yourself more than you used to...
  • If you've been longing to feel more like yourself again...
  • I hope this book reminds you of something important.
NOTHING ABOUT YOU IS BROKEN. Nothing essential has been lost. The connection to yourself is still there. Sometimes we simply need to slow down long enough to hear it again.

Your next chapter begins here.
